I have a line on a project bike. Called the guy about a Honda 2-wheeled (Yes, 2 wheeled) ATV. I thought it was a Fatcat, but he said it is a 1980 200cc and Fatcats were only made in '86 (I think). It has a headlight, baloon tires, and fenders. Could it be a real 2 wheeler or is it a chop job???

most people get the years wrong. When I found my 86 200x, the guy told me on the phone it was a "92 or 93" I laughed and asked when I could come look at it. ended up buying it on the spot.

Thanks for the rpelies, but I went today and it was crap. An 81 200 front half anda home-made rearend, missing the recoil, no linkage or brakes. He wouldn't come down from $150. I offered $50 becase I figured someone could use the motor but no go.

yamaha also made a 80 cc 4 stroke BW one also. 84250r was rite they made a 200 and 350 cc ones. they were kind off slow due to the auto clutch and the 2 chians needed to clear the rear tire.

I've ridden the BW200. Allot of fun, but pretty gut-less (200cc 4 stroke). Especially when you get off an 86 Tecate 250 and onto the "B-Dub". a friend of mine has a BW80. It was allot of fun to play on.

I'd like to take a spin on the 350 some day. I've got an old article somewhere of two hopped up BW200s. White Bros did one and some other company (powroll maybe) did the other and they raced them on an MX track.
